Θανάσης Παπακωνσταντίνου
Θανάσης Παπακωνσταντίνου
Ερμηνεια: Διονύσης Σαββόπουλος
Ζεϊμπέκικο της Κυριακής
σαν τη βροχή στο τζάμι
βήματα, φτερουγίσματα
από παλιό Τσιτσάνη.
Δευτέρα με Παρασκευή
χαμένος στη σκοτούρα
λίγη δροσιά το Σάββατο
μούχλα την Κυριακή.
Ζεϊμπέκικο της Κυριακής
μες στο δωμάτιο μόνος
χέρια χτυπάει γονατιστός
ο σταυρωτής ο χρόνος.
Δευτέρα με Παρασκευή
χαμένος στη σκοτούρα
λίγη δροσιά το Σάββατο
μούχλα την Κυριακή.
Ζεϊμπέκικο της Κυριακής
το χώμα δε σ' αντέχει
άπιστος κι αν προσεύχεται
παρηγοριά δεν έχει.
Δευτέρα με Παρασκευή
χαμένος στη σκοτούρα
απάνω τους το Σάββατο
ήττα την Κυριακή!

I really like this! I'd download it for my library if I could find a copy but it's not available on iTunes. Any ideas?

As it seems you have never heard Russian or Yiddish either. They are WELL apart. Such an ignorance is baffling in 21. Century...

What is this slogan mean in context? It lends itself to many constructions - from Fascistic to Utopian. Help a guy out.

I wonder if anyone else heard the intro and thought this was going to be "Lowrider" (before the drums kick in).

The Greek language predates the other two. Although I looked it up, I am no longer qualified to manage the roots and stems of language. I liked it as well :)

Played right after "Tales of Brave Ulysses".....

It's lunchtime and I've got a hankering for a gyro.

i m from Athina, i like savvopoulos, but his old songs, not this

Probably not an album I would buy - but I'm going with a 9 to start with simply due to the novelty (to my ears) and pure eclectic nature

Honestly thought this was Daniel Lanois until he started singing in Greek! Pretty good anyway, love the unexpected on this. Keep it up Bill!

It's always a pleasure to hear some greek music. A little bit melancholic, but so nice. Thank you, RP.

Thanks for the song Bill. And if I may suggest a follow-up (with the risk of diving too deep into the Greek psyche): Μ' Αεροπλάνα και βαπόρια -- Μπέλλου Σωτηρία

Here's the translation
Thanasis Papakonstantinou Thanasis Papakonstantinou Interpretation: Dionysis Savvopoulos Zeybek on Sunday like the rain on the glass steps, fluttering from old Tsitsani. Monday to Friday lost in the dark a little cool on Saturday mold on Sunday. Zeybek on Sunday in the room alone hands clapping kneeling the crusader the time. Monday to Friday lost in the dark a little cool on Saturday mold on Sunday. Zeybek on Sunday the soil can not stand you unbeliever even if he prays has no consolation. Monday to Friday lost in the dark on them on Saturday defeat on Sunday!


Pretty sure in this context its "fog" not "mold." Zeibekiko is a free form dance style usually danced alone, a la, Zorba the Greek.

The Greek Bob Dylan.  Or is the Greek Frank Zappa?   I would like to hear examples of these.

Ahhhh,
as my brother in law states
"Greece - a third world country with electricity." 
He's married to a Greek girl.  
I can't wait to go back!

For me, I thought PSD, then I listened more. I kinda like it. It's not a 10, but it's different in a good way.

Ask him about Sotiria Bellou and Vassilis Tsitsanis, you will see bright eyes.

If you like this, listen a bit rembetiko. This is the traditional greek blues music, a universe of its own.
